​Over the past several years, St. Joseph’s RCS has made many upgrades. In the past 3 years alone, some of our improvements include…* Air conditioning in every classroom* New Roof* New tile floors* New exterior doors* New lighting* New smart boards* iPad cart* New computers* Filtered WiFi network* Google Apps for Education* New after school clubs ​These improvements and many more would not have been possible without the hard work of our school community and the many donations we receive from that community. As a private Catholic school, we rely on donations to ensure we are able to continue to improve our school to bring 21st century learning to our students.

We are forever grateful for all the donations of time, money, and materials! We also know that it is important for our school community to know where their donations go. In an effort to better support this understanding we have created several initiatives for any future donations and support. Our initiatives include a STEM initiative, Drama initiative, Playground initiative, Window initiative, Security Initiative, and Tuition Assistance initiative. Please refer below for more information on each initiative.

STEM InitiativeOur STEM initiative is designed to improve the current Science Technology Engineering and Math opportunities offered to our students. Some of the current projects related to our STEM initiative include our Lego Robotics Club, Google Apps for Education, and iPad cart.

Drama InitiativeOur Drama initiative is designed to improve our current drama and theater program. This year we are excited to be producing our Christmas play Return of the Magi. However, our stage is in desperate need of repair and we hope to add a curtain for our future performances.Playground initiativeOur playground initiative is designed to improve the school’s playground. We are currently looking at leveling the playground and bringing in soil and grass seed to offer a field more conducive to the daily soccer, tag, and various other games during recess. We also hope to upgrade our current metal jungle gym with modern playground equipment, for a safe and fun area for our students to play.Window InitiativeOur Window initiative is designed to upgrade our school windows over the course of the next several years. Although our windows allow a lot of natural light to come into the school, they also are very old and result in a lot of energy loss. We plan to use several grants to make this improvement a reality, but we know we will also require donations from the school community. Our hope is that we will be able to install all new windows over the course of the next five years.Security InitiativeOur Security initiative is designed to improve the security we have in place at St. Joseph’s RCS. We believe that our school is already a safe place with the current security we have in place. However, when it comes to keeping our family safe, we know there is always room for us to improve. We are currently looking at adding security cameras to offer better surveillance of activities both in and out of the school.Tuition Assistance InitiativeOur Tuition Assistance initiative is designed to offer additional financial support to our current families. Each year our families receive over $60,000 in Archdiocesan tuition assistance. Our practicing Catholic families receive additional assistance from their parishes. However, there is still a gap between what our school community can afford to pay for tuition, and what our tuition is. All donations towards this initiative will be moved into a fund reserved for supporting our families with financial difficulties throughout the school year.WE THANK YOU FOR ANY DONATIONS OR SUPPORT YOU CAN OFFER, AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO OUR CONTINUED GROWTH AND IMPROVEMENT WITH THAT SUPPORT!​

What Our Parents Are Saying

I LOVE this school! I have a 5th grader and a 6th grader who both started at St. Joseph's in Kindergarten. The staff is amazing - they all treat the students like their extended family. The middle school team is just that... a TEAM who works together to ensure the students are well prepared for High School. They are aware of tests, quizzes and papers that other teachers have assigned and they take care to make sure the students are working to their full potential but are not overloaded. I love many of the community building events St. Joseph's has every year - a crab feast in the fall, a 5K and one mile fun run, monthly basket bingo nights, pasta dinners and a Multicultural Pot Luck Night in the spring! I can't say enough positive about the school. If you are looking for a quality education for your child in a small, personal class setting, you should set up an appointment to visit the school...you won't be disappointed! ​ - Parent
